I am relatively new to Ubuntu.
I started the upgrade from 8.04 to 8.10 last night. By this morning it had downloaded all the files and was configuring things. I answered the question about retaining my smb.conf file. The Updater told me that there were approximately 4 minutes remaining to completion. I then went off to do things and came back an hour later. The updater told me it was updating smb.conf and would be finished in 4 minutes.
I wanted to lock the screen and the lock screen, log off, switch user form took a few minutes to open.
I left it to go to work, came back this evening 10 hours later and it had progressed to the point where it is now installing a new smsd.conf file. It still tells me that it will take about 4 minutes.
I do not want to kill the process, but I would like the process to come to an end soon.
Please help. Thanx in advance.
